I am looking forward to a wet 100K populaire with the Oregon Randonneurs that starts at the Grand Lodge in Forest Grove and takes the scenic route to the sausage festival in Verboort (by way of Snooseville and Cedar Canyon). I will be avoiding any actual contact with the sausage or those who choose to eat it, but the ride will be fun!

Is Elly Blue single? 🙂
I have finally finished the re-decoration of my lighted bicycle and restoration of my lighted jacket!
I did a brief inaugural ride with the lights tonight at about 6:30 PM through some of the neighborhoods in inner SE (including getting lost in Ladd’s).
It dazzled the kids trick or treating and raised hoops and wows from everyone else.
Unfortunately I had to cut it short as I am fighting a head cold & fever and needed to get inside where it’s warm, missing the freak ride later this evening.
I hope to have some pictures up later this weekend when I have some more energy.
Luv
Mark Allyn

Mark, I passed you on Ladd Ave last night on my commute home – I was very impressed with the restored jacket!
RLK, re: post 2,

Thank you for the compliment!

the costumes were amazing on the north freak ride! was tons of fun and we even caught the chain reaction/sprockettes performance at howl on a stop!
Lily’s bike move and Halloween Party Hop was a ok. also this weekend took my first foray up and over Skyline for a wedding reception. folks at the party were mostly not bikey and very impressed and fascinated that someone could bike there from NoPo. it was a hoot.
Cool video, and -excellent- sound track. Very nize.
